De Gruyter has a long history of publishing Kant scholarship and embraces philosophical work in the Kantian tradition in the broadest sense. To promote and foster the Kantian legacy, de Gruyter has made a grant to the American Philosophical Association to organize an annual de Gruyter Kant Lecture Series. De Gruyter explicitly intends the de Gruyter Kant Lecture Series to be open to a broad approach to Kantian philosophy across the philosophical disciplines. This may also include contemporary philosophical work in the Kantian tradition.

The de Gruyter Kant Lecture Series is offered every year at a divisional meeting on a rotating basis, and the lectures are published in the Proceedings and Addresses.

Award Amount: $1,500 plus travel costs not to exceed $1,500

Frequency: Annual

Selection

The de Gruyter Kant Lecturer is selected by a five-person committee (appointed by the APA), in consultation with members of the APA's committee on lectures, publications, and research. The committee includes one representative from each of the three divisions and former recipients may be invited to serve on the committee. Eligibility for this award is limited to APA members. (Membership may be arranged after the winner is selected.)
